An epicurean poem, 1t, which Is but seldom

board there sat the hostess and her friends,
with that sweet grace Of fellowship which
friendship always lends, and merry talk
and happy laugh and wit aud wisdom came,
to lay their treasures at her feet In tribute
to her fame. The lights fell softly on the
scene, the fragrance OF the flowers com
mingled with the odorous feast, and swiftly
sped the hours, until that hour when tears
must come, with sad and solemn spell
the hour when friend must part with
friend and say last farewell, and 1t |
said but though the years and distance In

has been.
p s. Which being interpreted means that
the dinner given by Miss Eastlake to few
